No that isn't the long-dis tance telephone rate to Mars, it is the cost of just one sequence in ! “My Best Girl.” The sequence is en- acted in a huge set, representing the | downtown section of a business dis- | trict. The set occupies 1wo city | blocks, and it kept nearly four hun- dred workmen busy for a month in | erceting the four and five story | buildings and laying the street car | tracks and the paving. Although the cost of the set itself, the salaries ot | the cast and of the twelve hundred clectricians and extra people uscd, otaled in the neighborhood of 3. 20 108, the scenes take only a few min- | utes on the screen, which makes it | possibly the most expensive sc- | quence per minute ever taken. 1 The five vaudeville acts which| start today deserve special mention, | “Rosie,” the world’s most intelligent | clephant; Joe Bennett & Co., in a| comedy skit telephone tangle; Frank and Teddy Sabini, singing, talking; Goodwin & Fitzpatrick, the royal | jailers; Muriel Kay & Co., unique| dance offering.

In the eyes of the police of Paris he ranks with the bricklayer, the street sweeper or the truck driver. The word *“gigolo” is not English, but it cannot descriptively be trans- lated. It is the word used for that species of male who earns a living making himself agreeable to elderly women who like to throw off their years and move in the lighter gocial | whirl. The term is one of derdsion, but the business has at last been officlally recognized. A good many gigolos in Paris are foreigners, according to the Ppolice, There is a regulation that foreign workmen must carry a card from ! the ministry of labor authorizing {them to practice their trade. So many gigolos have been picked up in the cleanup campaign of the energetic police prefect, Jean { Chiappe, that the dignificd classifi- j cation of workmen has at last been given them. The gigolo is officlafly a | part of the social life of the capital. | DI | The gigelo, according to M.| Chiappe, is a war product. He ac- | companies the die-hard females of means to teas, dances and dinners, letting them pay the bills and accept- ing remuneration in return for his graceful presence and attention. It has been necessary, according to M. ‘(‘hlnppe. to classify him because of { his carelessness with the jewcls of { his lady friends. With wits to match his nimble | feet, he has ben running wild with both the affections and property of lonesome ladies. In order to keep in touch with him, the police now insist that he register as a workman, like | Ay foreigner in France who toils with the pick and shovel. With his | labor card and his dress suit, he can | move in the brightest circles as long as he does so houestly, i Classifying the gigolo is only one |angle of the strenuous work under- {taken by M. Chiappe. In his report |to the city council he stated that {durlng the pust six months his men {have stopped over 225,000 persons, taken 13,000 of these to police sta- tions to be questioned further, and | prosecuted over 11,000, ¢« o . he lifted it in short flights until he was able to navigate successfully in the ajr, The first exhibition given publicly | by Mr. Nelson in the new machine was on Memorial Day of the same vear, when he fiew over New Rritain. After that, the plane was flown out | of the old baseball park at Light- | house Point and finally crashed in Middletown, In viewing the photographs, Mr. Nelson remarked that the Tyler field, now grown over with trecs, would make an excellent landing fleld for airplanes. It could be cleared with little difficulty and would give plenty of space for a takeoff or a landing.

Donlon, aged 31, of 79 Roberts street, pleaded guilty to the charge of drunken dri ing and was fined $100 and costs, with a sus- pended jail sentence of 10 days. Officer James M.

Commandeering another car they gave chase and overhauled Donlon near §t. Mary's church. Ac- cording to the officer, Donlon was so intoxicated he could not stand un- assisted, and Lieutenant Matthias Rival, who was in charge at head- Guarters when Donlon was presented, testified that he was unfit to operate a car. Donlon had nothing to say, Grove W. Wooding, aged 40, of 64 Forestville avenue, Plainville, plead- ed nolo contendere to the charge of speeding and was fined $10 without costs on recommendation of Prose- cuting Attorney J. G. Woods.

They pleaded guilty to charges of drunkenness and assaulting each other. Officer Eugene Kieffer .tes- tified that he made the arrests about 112:30 o'clock last night on complaint of Kornkiewicz, who accused Jobion of striking him on the forehead with a bowl while he was asleep.
